Take It In Songtext
von The Waifs

Now she′s thinking of the red soil
And the mango tree
But in her mind
She is splashing around down on Cable Beach
And her eyes
They are as rich and far away
As a sunset there
She's not taking in a word I say
I might as well be talking to myself

Take it in, take it all in
′Cause now is a time that will not come again
Take it in, take it all in
'Cause this is a day and it's here for the living


We step outside into the Melbourne weather
Well the shock it brings her back to where she is
But we′ve made this place our home
Surrounded by the unknown
Oh and we′ll try to stick it out
Until it comes together

Take it in, take it all in
'Cause now is a time that will not come again
Take it in, take it all in
′Cause this is a day and it's here for the living

Oh we′re only living for a day
Some days gone by
You're never taking in this moment
Never knowing what you had until it passed you by
And it′ll pass you by

Take it in, take it all in
'Cause now is a time that will not come again
Take it in, take it all in
'Cause this is a day and it′s here for the living
Take it in, take it all in
′Cause now is a time that will not come again
Take it in, take it all in
'Cause this is a day and it′s here for the living
